Hi
iiest shibpur is the 2nd oldest engineering college in all of India ranking 43 in general among all colleges and 21 by NIRF 2020. It has been a prominent institute in all of India. Aerospace is a new department of IIEST formed in 2011 branching from mechanical department and it is a government institution. VIT is one of the best college for aerospace engineering.
Facultywise IIEST us better than VIT with the mechanical department regarded as one of the premier department honing some of the best faculty members present.
Placement wise both are good. In both the companies hire students and offer them good salary with median salary of about 6.5 LPA
Between VIT bhopal and IIEST it is very hard to choose but being the fact IIEST is a government college and homes some of the best faculty members and at a much lower expense.

Dear aspirant,

As per my view if I had to consider placements only then of course mnit bhopal and IIIT allahabad would be at a better place if I had to compare between nit Agartala and iiest shibpur.

Nit Agartala is considered to be a decent college not very good or not bad whereas iiest shibpur placements are not very great in case of biotechnology. The placements are very dull. Almost 30-40% are placed from this branch which is very less.

So, IIIT allahabad average package stands somewhere between 18L for cse and for other branches 8-9L atleast. Same in the case for manit bhopal but average package is a bit lower.

Dear aspirant,

As you have mentioned that you have got 55 percentile in jee mains and even if i consider that you are from sc category still it is very difficult for you to get a seat in mechanical in decent nits or in iiest.

Your rank would be somewhat around 5L.So, in this rank may be you can try for lower nits like Srinagar, Mizoram, Arunachal Pradesh. In gfti's you can try for Assam University, ggu bilaspur.

Dear Aspirant,

If you are talking about package in every college then it's same in every college (can't be said in case of nits/IITs) but it is same for all other colleges. For iiest too, the highest package is bagged by computer science branch and the highest package is given by Microsoft which 39L.

Hi Aspirant!

Yes, students are bound to maintain atleast 75% attendance in all the subjects. 25% margin is provided for any co-curricular or extra curricular activities. Every professor take note of the attandance of students in their class. And before the exams the attendance list is shown on the display board. Students who attain less than 75% attendance are given a chance to improve the same. But if they fail to do so, then they are not allowed to sit in the exams.

Hope I answered your query, thankyou!

Hello aspirant,

According to review of students it is One the best colleges in Bengal, got top minds, good infrastructure, with increasing reputation as it recently became an INI, so overall good. Needs some work in Pvt Sector and placements need to be pushed up a bit, overall placements are fine. The staff is good and supportive. Management is a bit faulty at times but that happens everywhere. If you can work, this place can get you to heights. Alumni are excellent, major contributors to college's development.

Hello aspirant,

Yes, 75% attendance is required in IIEST. The professors take note of the attendance of the students and display lists on the notice board which contains the students who do not have 75% attendance in their respective subjects. If the defaulters do not improve their attendance then they will not be able to sit for their exams. So, please do maintain a 75% attendance here. While I understand some classes will be tedious, it is something you have to bear for the greater good.

Hope this helps you

College Infrastructure

Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology situated in Shibpur Having good infrastructure.Certainly lacks the facility & infrastructure of a top notch institute (refers to my dept.-archi), and heard a lot of complaints from my B.Tech friends about the placement department, which I presume is true to a large extent, although the new INI tag will be able to solve the problem, hopefully. But, students here get one hell of an experience of the hostel life, senior-junior relationship is something we learn to treasure and cherish.

Good college

College Infrastructure

Our college having great infrastructure with all the facilities are available. Library is very well maintained with all books and papers you need with space to study there as well. Hostels on the other hand really need serious maintainance. The food quality is very bad to average. Drinking water is not very good as well. There are no well made tables or chairs in hostels, you have to buy them on your own. For sports there are 2 big grounds where you can play cricket and football. There is separate court for basketball and one for badminton. Except these there isn't anything else in sports department.

It was pretty good experience.

College Infrastructure

Great Infrastructure but placements should be improved as there was no placement in 2020 for Applied Geology. I am pretty sure the engineering departments are very much good at infrastructure but the university authorities must pay attention t the science departments as well.
